How old do you have to be to rent a car in Hilo?
The minimum age to rent a car in Hilo is 21. An extra fee for young drivers usually applies, so check before booking and factor in possible additional costs. There could also be restrictions on the sorts of vehicles available to young drivers. For instance, some companies will only rent out economy to medium-sized cars to young motorists. Rules may vary between providers, so look over the fine print.
What do you need to rent a car in Hilo?
Before you can hit the road in Hilo, you'll need a driver's licence and a credit card that matches the name on your licence. If you prefer not to take out the company's insurance policy, you may also have to provide proof of alternative coverage. Requirements can vary, so read the policy terms and conditions before you select a rental supplier.
What is the cheapest car rental in Hilo?

Yes. We partner with quality companies that offer long-term rentals for many car classes. Take a look at our long-term car rental deals and discover every part of Hilo — or beyond!
Where can I find a Hilo car rental if I am younger than 25?
Some Hilo providers will rent cars to drivers under 25 years of age, and others won't. Policies differ from supplier to supplier, so you'll want to do your homework. Also, find out if there are any extra costs. Some places will have a surcharge for customers between the ages of 21 and 24. Always check the terms and conditions so you know what to expect.
